b.Representations and Warranties of the Borrower. The Borrower represents and warrants that as of the First Amendment Effective Date:
a)The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this First Amendment have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and that this

be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar law affecting creditors’ rights generally;
a.Each of the representations and warranties contained in the Loan Agreement is true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof as if made on the date hereof, except to the extent such representation or warranty is stated to relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty was true on and as of such earlier date; and
